Explanation:

Hello! Let's solve this!

When we unite potassium, which has a valence number of +1, that means that it has da electron, we unite it with iodine, which has a valence number of -1. That is, the iodine accepts an electron.

We form potassium iodide.

The formula is:

K + I ---> KI

It is a balanced equation since it uses one atom of each (iodine and potassium) for the formation of the product.

K + I - > KI 
Potassium (needs to lose 1 electron) responds with Iodine (needs to pick up 1 electron) to fulfill both component's octet, shaping a salt, potassium iodide 
This is a similar case for NaCl, simply unique components. Trust this made a difference.

Explanation:

beacause all the elements in period 3 has different valence electrons hence you look at the first element in period 3 is sodium which has a valence electron of 1 when you go across the period to the right their valence electron decreases to be negative

The metal tantalum becomes superconducting at temperatures below 4.483 K. Calculate the temperature at which tantalum becomes su
masha68 [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is "-268.667°C".

Explanation:

Given:

Temperature,

= 4.483 K (below)

Now,

The formula of temperature conversion will be:

⇒ T(^{\circ} C)=T(K)-273.15

By putting the values, we get

⇒            =4.483-273.15

⇒            =-268.667^{\circ} C

Thus the above is the correct answer.

Identify the Brønsted-Lowry acid, the Brønsted-Lowry base, the conjugate acid, and the conjugate base in each reaction:
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

C5H5N is the base and C5H5NH+ is the conjugate acid

H2O is the acid and OH− is the conjugate base

Explanation:

<u>Hydrogen + is also called a proton</u>

C5H5N is the base because it receives the proton (H+) and C5H5NH+ is its conjugate acid

H2O is the acid  because it gives up the proton and OH− is the conjugate base because it is capable of receiving the proton

Answer:

HNO3 is the acid and NO3- is the conjugate base

H2O is the base and H3O+ is the conjugate acid

Explanation

HNO3 is the acid and NO3− is its conjugate base, capable of receiving a proton

H2O is the base because it receives the proton and H3O+ is a conjugate acid capable of giving up the proton.
